These are three reasons why should you never give up your games.

1. You can trade enough material that they couldn't mate you. I was about to resign and then just thought maybe trade all of pieces and try to get him down to such material he couldn't mate but I was worred he had all those pawns coming down.

2. Look for Stalemates. This is already my favorite! He had all these pieces and pawns to make into queens and my king couldn't move for the longest time, but I saw my chance to stop the pawn and went for is, and then saw another way out!

3. Look for a win, even if it's a last chance and not very likely to have happen. You might get surprised. I was sure I would lose cause he was aiming to trade off all the pieces and still have the pawn to promote, then I decided that I didn't need to trade at all, but could just runaway. So first I attacked his rook, then let my king ran away, and then I made his king ran away and I won!

So the moral of the story is Never Give Up!

In the last one, the position kind of switches colors a little bit. My king bishop and rook are there and they get switched out by his bishop and queen and king.
